Is it possible to restrict the availability of a printer so that it will only print between certain hours although it accepts print jobs 24/7?

I've noticed quotas but this seems to be number of jobs or pages per time period. I'm trying to ensure that any jobs printed late at night are held in the queue until the rest of the household is awake the next day. You could stop/start the printer. Cups will queue the jobs til it is restarted. To automate it, maybe use cron. Or just turn the printer off and on.
